Tried a few apps that were fantastic!! The Moroccan cigars, lamb meatballs and eggplant appetizer were amazing! My picky eater loved the chicken with spinach in a mustard sauce!! Seriously, everything was delicious!!Kid-friendliness: Very accommodating!

I normally try to not go to places within an hour before closing. But we were already on our way (at 8:00) when we realized that they closed at 9:00 rather than 9:30. We decided to order takeout so that we wouldn't be hanging around.Not only did we not feel rushed out, but the staff was incredibly friendly. We hadn't eaten Moroccan food before, and the waiter was very kind and patient with giving us recommendations (also clearly directed us to what he would have actually ordered, rather than just pointing us to the most expensive items.)The manager came out and chatted with us for a good while. They also decided to throw in a free baklava (which was *delicious,* by far the best we've had) and an order of rice.The food was amazing. I just wouldn't recommended it to anyone who isn't into spicy food. My partner is Italian, and we both have a pretty high spice/heat tolerance, but we definitely had to pace ourselves. It was *so* flavorful; unlike anything we've had before.Now I'm just wishing we had Moroccan food in our area (Western NC.) Fingers crossed that a place will open someday.Thanks so much to the wonderful staff. They really went above and beyond with making us feel welcome. Would absolutely recommend.

Excellent range of selections. Food was ready on time ( telephone order ) Quality excellent. Remind yourself to specify level of spiciness ( quite spicy!! ) Restaurant small and clean ( need more space! ) Staff friendly and knowledgeable. Overall great find in Wildwood, NJ!!

pros: The restaurant is small, quaint, and well-decorated. The staff were friendly and food was delicious!cons:SLOW service! We entered at the same time as two other small groups, and there was one larger group already seated. Both other tables that entered with us received their food and were almost done eating before we even got our meals. We waited over an hour for our appetizer, and then another 25 mins for the entrees. During the wait, the host/server didn't come over to us once to say anything... no acknowledgment for the waiting at all. He was completely absent. The portions were very small considering the price tag. $25 for a vegetable tagine with maybe 1/4 cup of rice and one piece of naan. For that cost, at least bulk it up with a decent serving of rice.

Very understaffed and long wait for the food. Was also disappointed that they ran out of lamb before 7:00 PM. Food was delicious!

FINALLY a flavorful, interesting restaurant in Wildwood! I never expected to find a place like this in downtown Wildwood. WOW WOW WOW! The food is so flavorful. It's different. I had an absolutely wonderful chickpea (garbanzo) vegetarian dish. My family members tried chicken and lamb. ALL of our food was delicious. On top of that our waiter was so friendly and kind. The prices were reasonable too. This is now my favorite place at the shore. I cannot wait to go back!

This place deserves 6 stars! If you are weary of steaks, seafood, pub food and pizza, this place will overwhelm your taste buds with delicious quisine from Morroco. It is incredible and we WILL be back. New fav place!

Great food and a perfect addition to the wildwood area.My only issue was the salt content. After dinner, during the night I woke up very thirsty. That morning my eyes were baggy, and I gained weight (water weight). One appetizer was clearly over salted.I know they use lots of sweet ingredients like dates and raisins which allows a cook to use more salt.My advice is to find a way to lower the salt content so people who are salt sensitive do not have a reaction.

Absolutely delicious food! Never had Moroccan food before but this was absolutely amazing. The lamb stews and shepherd’s pie were wonderful. Our sever was kind and despite the restaurant being very busy they were able to make all of our food and quickly. Great experience!
